Ryan Conroy (b. April 28, 1987, Vale of Leven, Scotland) is a professional footballer currently playing for Scottish Premier League club Celtic F.C. He plays on the left side of midfield.
He has yet to make his first team debut but is a regular in the Celtic under-19s and reserves. Following the departure of Alan Thompson to Leeds United F.C in January 2007 Conroy looks set to enjoy greater prominence in first team affairs at Celtic Park.
Conroy has consistently impressed throughout his time with the Celtic youth system. During a pre-season tournament in Brussels, a game took place between Celtic and Greek side AEK Athens. After watching a Celtic side containing Conroy, McGeady, Hasson, Ferry, Wallace and McGaughey thrash his side 13-0, Greek coach Ilias Lambrou commented that Conroy was "the best young player I've ever seen, bar none".
